Chapter 173: Abilities
Gu Weiwei hung up and opened Weibo on her phone; she went onto Li Xing’er’s personal page.
Then she saw the two most recent posts by her. One was a clip in which Li Xing’er was injured by her.
In the video, Li Xing’er was injured by her and then many people from the crew went up to see how she was doing.
Only she was standing still without showing any care.
Then her next post was [I am not skilled enough].
Two pictures were attached, one of which showed her wound and the other a selfie with a sad face.
In the comments section, large groups of Li Xing’er’s fans were concerned about her and were cursing the person who wounded her.
Gu Weiwei logged onto her own Weibo and found that on the recent post, Li Xing’er’s fans’ comments covered up the entire page.
[You are just an internet star who should never make movies].
[You didn’t even apologize to her when you injured her?]
[You did that on purpose, right?]
[Didn’t your mother teach you how to apologize when you injure someone?]
…
She scrolled down a few pages worth and showed a sneer on her face. There were some comments left by the fans of the original novel on the Long Wind.
[Tang Shaoqi played by an internet star? Honestly?]
[Li Xing’er is good at performing and we look forward to when she plays Lin Qingxue.]
[But this supporting role has nothing more than a pretty face.]
…
Before she finished reading the comments, Jolin called her again.
“A TV-series played by Li Xing’er is on air recently and her Weibo post is becoming more and more popular. This will be very bad for our original promotional plan.”
She had formed a proper image online as the Black Swan through live-streaming.
And Li Xing’er was quite popular among her fans due to the two soap operas she had been in these past few days.
Now when she posted two Weibo posts and her fans as well, as the bots kept writing mean stuff, people would establish a bad image of Mu Weiwei before the movie was even aired and considering that she was just an internet star without any proven abilities…
Also, if the fussing carried on, some rumors might start to appear that she had obtained the role of Tang Shaoqi, through unfair means.
Gu Weiwei pursed her lips and realized that Li Xing’er did it on purpose and she had even asked her a.s.sistant to record the video too.
“I will call Third Master and let him do something to supress Li Xing’er’s post.” Jolin said.
Gu Weiwei thought for a while and asked, “The media visit the day after tomorrow… will there be any trustworthy journalists there?”
“Of course, several media companies want to have a peek at Third Master.” Jolin said. He then curiously asked, “Why? Is it anything to do with what is happening now?”
“He doesn’t need to do anything, I can make a fuss.” Gu Weiwei said as she showed a cold smile.
“What do you mean?” Jolin was startled.
Gu Weiwei lifted the blanket, got up and headed into the bathroom to wash up as she said, “If she wants to cause me trouble, I will make sure she pays me back at least three times more.”
Jolin was not quite convinced.” What do you plan to do?”
“You will know the day after tomorrow.” Gu Weiwei smiled and ended the call, instead of telling Jolin anything more.
She got up and ate breakfast and happened to run into Yi An who also got up early. He heard about what had happened on Weibo and came over to console her.
“Don’t think too much about Weibo, alright?”
“Okay.” Gu Weiwei smiled and nodded.
“Play your role well, and when the movie is released, your abilities will speak louder than anything else.”
